visual methods

Visual methods are research techniques that use visual tools—like charts, diagrams, photographs, or drawings—to collect and analyze data. They help reveal patterns, relationships, or insights that might be hard to see with words alone. These methods are useful across many fields, such as social sciences, healthcare, and marketing, for understanding people's experiences, behaviors, or environments. By making information visually explicit, they enhance clarity and communication, allowing researchers and audiences to grasp complex ideas quickly and effectively.
